Physical Therapy

Physical therapy, also known as physiotherapy, is a vital healthcare discipline focused on restoring mobility, function, and overall quality of life for individuals affected by injury, illness, or disability. Physiotherapists begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand each patient’s specific condition, then develop personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs and goals. Treatment may involve a combination of manual therapy techniques to relieve pain and improve joint mobility, targeted exercises to build strength and flexibility, and therapeutic modalities such as heat, cold, or electrical stimulation to reduce inflammation and support healing. Patient education is a key component, emphasizing proper posture, body mechanics, and home exercise programs to promote self-management and prevent future issues. By working closely with patients and other healthcare professionals, physiotherapists aim to optimize physical function, reduce discomfort, and support a return to daily activities—ultimately enhancing long-term health and well-being.
